Population health management logistics just became easier for collective clients of two health-care administrative providers with MatrixCare’s acquisition of electronic health record (EHR) firm SigmaCare in the metropolitan New York area.
Top-ranked EHR provider MatrixCare focuses on the long-term, post-acute care market in the Manhattan, NYC area, striving for interoperability using telehealth products to streamline data into “one e-longitudinal personal health record for … U.S. seniors.”
MatrixCare officials expressed dedication to ensuring a smooth transition for all current SigmaCare clients with plans to lend support for five years. President and CEO John Damgaard conveyed enthusiasm, noting that acquisitions play a key role in MatrixCare’s growth strategy.
“Our strong financial position and rock-solid operating performance allow us to actively seek out successful products and customer bases,” Damgaard said. “SigmaCare is the dominant player in the Greater New York area … and will help us better support New York area providers as we navigate the transition to a fee-for-value healthcare system together.”
Subsequent to the acquisition, SigmaCare customers have full access to MatrixCare’s resources including CareCommunity, Revenue Cycle Management, and MatrixCare Analytics.
“As someone who knows the SigmaCare business very well, I believe its customers should be as excited about this move as we are,” Stephen Pacicco, MatrixCare’s senior vice president of corporate development and former SigmaCare CEO, said. “MatrixCare has the right resources, leadership and vision for the care of America’s seniors and I’m excited that, as part of MatrixCare, the SigmaCare customers and employees are now on the right team for the future.”
